Method: ApplicationHelper#current_user

Defined in:
app/helpers/application_helper.rb

#current_user ⇒ User?

Redefined Devise current_user helper. Additionally checks for deleted users - if the current user has been soft deleted, this will sign them out. As current_user is called on every page in the header, this has the effect of immediately signing the user out even if they’re signed in when their account is deleted.

Returns:
